The anti-American hate group was resoundingly defeated when it brazenly challenged the people's right to vote during a successful 2005-2008 statewide citizen's initiative and referendum protecting and defining marriage as the union of one man, one woman in Florida's constitution.

"The Christian Family Coalition is shocked and dismayed that Mayor Carlos Gimenez, who with scarcely 51% of the vote barely won election just a few short months ago, would even consider meeting with hard-core, ideology-driven extremists vehemently opposed to our right as Americans to vote in free and open elections. How ironic that Mayor Gimenez is asking us to re-elect him in a free and democratic election this Fall, yet he secretly meets with extremists on record as opposing free and democratic elections. Inevitably, Miami-Dade voters will hold the mayor accountable for his actions this November. We can only wonder why he disrespects his duty to represent all Miami-Dade residents and sabotages along the way his chances at re-election."
